62 F100 Decoding Help!

Hey guys,

I am on my way back to Kentucky from California with my new toy. This truck has a rust free body and I plan on keeping it. I could definitely use some help decoding the V.I.N. # and other codes. I really appreciate the help. The #'s are as follows: V.I.N.: F11CR212592 W.B. 120 Color: M Model: F113 Trans: F Axle: 12A GVW: 5600 Horsepower: 130 RPM: 3000 Thanks for and and all help, comments, and input.

F11 = F100 4WD.

C = 292 2V

R = San Jose CA Assembly Plant

212592 = 1962. Assembled in November 1961.

120" Wheelbase

M = Corinthian White

F113 = F100 4WD / 5600 lbs. GVWR

F = Borg Warner T-98 4 Speed Manual Transmission

12A: 12 = Ford 9" Rear Axle / 3.89-1 / non Limited Slip / 3300 lb. Rear Axle Capacity // A = Spicer-Dana 44 Front Axle / 3.92-1 / non Limited Slip / 3,000 lb. Front Axle Capacity.

5600 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

135 net HP @ 3,800 RPM (According to the 1957/63 Ford Truck Parts Catalog it is not 130 HP @ 3,000 RPM).

DSO: Not listed.
